CVA optima 50cal stainless fluted 26” w/BH breech plug
cosninocanines replied to 060785's topic in Classified Ads
Is this rifle still available? I'm looking for my first muzzleloader though I have been hunting for 60 years. I have a GMU 9 Muzzleloader deer tag in early November. I live in Flagstaff but can come to the valley. -
Has anybody had problems with a background check for firearms. I won a pistol from the Arizona Elk Society and had it mailed to Sportsman's Warehouse in Flagstaff on April 7, 2019. I filled out the required background info and the CJIS placed it in "Delayed Status" which I'm still in today 2 months later. Sportsman's says there is nothing they can do and I have tried email and mail communication with the feds with no reply other than "If your status is delayed please be advised that the FBI is not accepting challenges for firearm-related delays at this time". Anybody on here know what if any avenues I have to follow up? I picked up a rifle about 3 years ago and passed the check with no problem so I just have no idea what to do. Thank You for any assistance or suggestions.

Background Problems
cosninocanines replied to cosninocanines's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
I'm away but will be back in a few days and will follow up with FFL Sportsman's about their policy. -
Interesting mix of critters over the last few weeks.

Agree! Signs are needed however blocking the roads could have an adverse affect on fire crews responding to a fire. Generally first responders are in a pickup or small engine and trenches or boulders would slow the response down considerably.

My wife’s 2018 bull bison hunt video
cosninocanines replied to azhunter85's topic in Buffalo Hunting
Saw this on FB great video and fantastic hunt. Congratulations on a very nice Bull. -
I like this a Heritage Stamp like a duck stamp would be available to everybody whether they had a hunting license or not.

Was in the free CWT last year and would join that league again this year if you have it.

Didn't have a tv so several families gathered at a neighbors house to watch. I remember it like it was yesterday even though I can't remember what I did yesterdaay.

How Long Before a Carcass Completely Scavenged?
cosninocanines replied to lonne's topic in Black Bear or Grizzly Bear hunts
While hauling water this summer I encountered a fresh lion kill after observing a few vultures in a snag. I walked over and estimate the elk calf had been killed that night or early morning. Over the next 6 hours I checked each time I passed with another load and after those 6 hours and between the vultures some crows and a few coyotes the rib cage and what was left of the hind quarters as well as the head were stripped clean. Lower legs still had hide on them but I suspect not for long. 2 days later bones were scattered in every direction and there was no meat to be found. -
Thank You! I have 6 boxes of Barnes TSX in various cal and weights I have been very happy with my range results but have yet to draw a tag and or fill a tag with these. The Barnes have been experiencing some bad raps lately but I will stick with them when I do draw a tag.

I’m seeing and hearing that some folks are having problems with Barnes ammunition misfiring. Worst case is a young hunter on the North Rim hunting Buffalo. “During the hunt this morning, half the box would not fire. HALF. Of the two rounds we did manage to get to fire, one round the primer fell out and jammed the gun delaying reloading till the loose primer could be removed from the rifle's magazine. We have a frustrated and a VERY disappointed young hunter.” Has anybody on here experienced this problem?

Barnes Ammunition
cosninocanines replied to cosninocanines's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
I have two rifles in my house that love Barnes ammo, and never had any problems. But all the ammo I have is one to two years old. What caliber was he shooting? 300 RUMag -
Since we have had to concentrate on water hauling a lot of the normal catchment repair and maintenance has been neglected and there are lots of other areas that can use and need volunteers. As mentioned above fill out the form listing what you're comfortable doing so they can contact you when the need arises.

If for some reason you're not able to make your hunt please consider donating your tag to a disabled Vet via Hunts for Heros. Tom Wagner and the Arizona Elk Society have veterans on a waiting list for any hunt that requires a tag. Check it all out here https://www.arizonaelksociety.org/hunts-for-heroes

Wouldn't be able to go this year so just put in for the point but a friend with 26 points pulled a desert tag north of the Colorado river.

This link will take you to a single map showing the closure areas of all the forests. It is the Arizona Wildfire Incident Information page on facebook. https://www.facebook.com/ArizonaWildfireIncidentInformationRegion3/photos/a.108641963033602.1073741829.108596056371526/185610055336792/?type=3

The last fire cleaned up a lot of the debris from the 2000/ 2001 Punkin fire and put some good feed on the ground. Water is scarce now and all animals are starting to migrate towards water sources, this could (will) change when the monsoons come I'm a firm believer in water is life and IMOP that is where I would concentrate.

I'm just finishing my pre dinner cocktail and I think if you put some catnip out he might hang around rolling in the dirt until you have a chance to return.

There are no "Wild Horses" in Arizona these horses are feral horses big difference.

The problem with the "system" is the difference of stage restrictions by agency. Stage 3 in Coconino County is very different than stage 3 on the Coconino National Forest and different for State Lands stage 3 for land in the county. Coconino County is in Stage 3 for all private lands. It's a confusing issue for what you can and can't do in different parts of the county. Put 4 different National Forests in the county and it gets real confusing.
